Grow sedums from cuttings
Take cuttings of miniature sedum to make extra plants for rockeries, alpine troughs or even to plant a sedum roof. Sedums (or stonecrops) are easy succulent plants that make great low-maintenance ground cover. They require little water and can creep over gravel or paving to soften the edges of paths and drives.
Sedums flower reliably through summer and the foliage takes on a red tinge as the weather cools at the end of the season. Plants spread as stems root themselves when they flop to the ground. The oldest parts can become bare, so use their ability to root to can easily replenish planted areas with rooted cuttings.
You’ll have the best results if you grow cuttings in gritty soil or compost in full sun. There are other succulent plants that root easily, which you could use to complement sedums, such as sempervivum (houseleeks), echeverias or even succulent euphorbias. Pots of cuttings will root fast if left outside in a sheltered spot.
